Under NFHS rules there is no limit to the number of technical fouls that an individual can be charged.
You could have a situation where a player is DQ'd for receiving two Ts and then while sitting on the bench he says something unsporting and is issued a third.

I would certainly try not to give an adult a third before he left the gym. If a third T was really warranted on an adult I would definitely be considering ending the game.

Under NCAA rules, no player or coach may be issued more technical fouls than necessary for an ejection.


Section 2. Penalties Resulting in Ejection
Art. 1. Anyone who is assessed the following shall be ejected:
a. Two direct technical fouls.
b. (Men) One intentional technical foul with one direct technical foul.
c. Three indirect technical fouls.
d. Two indirect technical fouls with one direct technical foul.
e. Two indirect technical fouls with one intentional technical foul.
f. Any flagrant foul.
Note: The indirect technical fouls that can be part of these combinations are defined
in Rules 10-3.1 through 10-3.7 for the head coach and Rules 10-3.8 through 10-3.19 for the player.
Art. 2. When a player, member of bench personnel or coach has been ejected for having incurred the maximum number of technical fouls, no additional technical fouls shall be assessed.
